2025 R1S multiple issues

[sirna7]

Hello! We picked up our 2025 R1S on 6/29 and have experienced a multitude of issues that have not been addressed by Rivian and hoping to get some insights here.

Issue #1: the battery drains an average of 10% per day sitting on the driveway. Anyone else experience that?

Issue #2: proximity is off and the car still unlocks itself randomly. I had to turn off bluetooth on my phone.

Issue #3: There is no audio since this past Friday. No radio, navigation sound, turn signal sound - nothing. No sound.

We have tried multiple resets on the car and none of the issues have been fixed. Rivian customer service is the worst - still waiting for responses. What is the point in investing in a pricey car if I have to turn off the functionality? Super frustrated and would appreciate any insights or similar experiences.

Something is faulty with your car, which makes sense given there is also no sound, lol. Sorry. Only one that can fix this is your service center.

Vast majority of current 2025 owners report near 0% daily drain either on this forum, Reddit, or Facebook.

Do you have the power outlets turned on? My Gen 1 drains about 10% a day with the outlets on with nothing plugged in. When it's off it's about 3% a day. Still ridiculous but much better than 10%.

They appear to have paused gen 2 deliveries so I suspect you’re not alone. Disappointed to know that the key situation still sucks.

Rivian support walked us through multiple full resets with no luck. Waiting for a service date as they are backed up in CA till October.

ask for mobile service?

#1 My experience has been very different on this. Last 3 days that I left the car in the garage - it lost 6 miles from 205 to 199. That's about 2%. Is the AC on by any chance?

#2 It's a minor nuisance for us as well... every time someone goes to the garage with their phone it wakes up and unlocks.

#3 Have you tried the full reset? I had a similar problem where the indicators / brake lights stopped working as well. Only after a full reset it was operational. Soft reset didn't help in this case.

That is still a lot of drain for a 2025 model given the electronic changes.

I don't think so? They're definitely slow on deliveries but they are going out. This guy just picked his up on Friday or Saturday https://www.rivianforums.com/forum/...re-actually-being-delivered.30199/post-578503

Every feature that I can turn off has been turned off. We are just using the Rivian app - a google phone and an iphone.

I am searching every similar thread on this forum to hopefully get some insights.

My truck was doing this a lot. They had me turn off the proximity for a couple days and then turn it back on. Better, but still find it unlocked sometimes. Also, I had to start keeping the fob in an old coffee can. We've had stuff stolen in the middle of the night when it unlocked.

Do you have a ticket open?

Looks like you do.

Stay on top of them letting them know the car doesn’t feel safe to drive and get moved up would be my move.

Do you have a ticket open?

If not why?

5 open tickets in review status. First one was entered same day as pick up.

Yep - waiting for scheduling.

Good, I changed my post when I saw that.

I’d push them on the fact it isn’t safe to drive.

Thanks everyone! Finally got a call this morning and got it escalated to a safety/security issue. Hoping to hear back soon!

There's an option to turn off the proximity feature while at home.

"Class leading low vampire drain" is what waysem said. What a complete joke. The new software for the gen1 seems worse to me as well. I unplugged my car at 70% yesterday and this morning it's lost 8 miles of range.

Yeah the depletion to near 0 should be done to reach the battery/software how much range it really has. The calibration process is one of the drawbacks to lfp

Just don't let it get completely to zero!
